Does anyone know of a University or Community College that offers a degree in UFOology? I'd like to know what qualifications make a person a UFOologist? If you can't tell, I've been watching the History Channel this week.

I am not sure if the OSR (Organization for SETV Research) has the exclusive on who is honored with a UFOologer title or not. They seem to have the market on many of the terms and titles associated with UFO's and ETVs. You may want to also check the National UFO Conference as they award the "UFOlogist of the Year".

Individual UFO courses are available but i would question an actual degree. The norm seems to be former Air Force Officers, Engineers, Physicist, NASA Astrophysicist, Astronomers, etc...that have gone on to document their own studies in this area.

I've seen ET over 10 times...does that qualify me?

Hmm... What do they do in UFOlogy labs and classes? Anal probe research?

I think your best option is to attend what's called a ''MUFON'' conference. I have a very good buddy who is heavily involved in the study for extraterrestrial life and he raves about some of these conferences.

It's by bet though.... that while many notable academics seem to have a real interest in this subject, no institution of any notoriety offers an accredited degree program.

Obviously, most of the well known researchers are for the most part self-proclaimed/self-accredited, just like any other super controversial field of interest that doesn't have wide-spectrum of support from the masses.

Here is a link with some involvement from your home state.
